Defect-guided self-tearing in graphene
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract The two-dimensional to three-dimensional configuration transition through self-tearing promises the engineering and promising applications of graphene. However, it is challenging to control the tearing path on demand through common thermal and interfacial treatments. In this manuscript, a defect-guided self-tearing technique is proposed to generate wider, longer, and even curved and serrated configurations, which is impossible for defect-free graphene. The underlying tearing mechanisms regarding the advancing displacement are disclosed through molecular dynamics simulations and theoretical model. This study provides a useful guidance to the implementation of complex and functional three-dimensional graphene structures.
